Pratt School of Engineering
Learn by Doing
Hands on, experiential learning opportunities are a top priority for Duke engineering students. All students also have the opportunity to conduct independent research.
Quantum Dot-Based Sensors
Duke researchers are developing multifunctional detectors by synthesizing composite materials comprised dissimilar nanomaterials such as semiconductor crystals called quantum dots.
Metamaterial Cloaks
Duke researchers demonstrated metamaterial-based electromagnetic cloaking shells and acoustic cloaks.
Integrated Nanoscale Systems
Duke's advanced characterization and clean room fabrication capabilities enable multidisciplinary research and education for the creation, characterization, and integration of materials, devices, structures and systems.
Quantum Computing - Really
Duke researchers are developing optical components that will be used to help scientists create and measure the sub-atomic events that lay at the heart of quantum computing.
